In a collaborative effort, the Gender and Social Welfare Office, in conjunction with the Honorable Fabian, the Kangundo Member of Parliament, is currently spearheading a vital initiative to register individuals under various social welfare programs in the Kivaani Chief’s Office. The target areas include Ietune, Miu, Katitu, Kivi, and Ngumuti Sub-Locations. This outreach aims to make a significant difference in the lives of vulnerable individuals by providing them with access to essential services and support.
OPCT, PWSD, and OVCT Registration
The registration drive primarily focuses on three key programs:
- Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OPCT): This program aims to identify and assist children who have lost their parents or guardians, ensuring they receive the care, education, and support they need to thrive.
- Persons with Disabilities (PWSD): It seeks to recognize and support individuals with disabilities, offering them resources and opportunities to lead fulfilling lives and participate fully in their communities.
- Older Persons’ Cash Transfer (OVCT): This program is designed to provide financial assistance to elderly citizens, enabling them to meet their basic needs and maintain their dignity in their golden years.
Community Engagement and Participation
Community involvement is crucial to the success of this initiative. All residents of Ietune, Miu, Katitu, Kivi, and Ngumuti Sub-Locations are strongly encouraged to participate by registering themselves or assisting eligible individuals in their households or neighborhoods. This collective effort ensures that the most vulnerable members of the community receive the support they deserve.
How to Get Involved
To participate in the registration process, visit the Kivaani Chief’s Office during the designated registration period. Please bring any required documentation, such as identification cards, birth certificates, or disability certificates, as applicable.
This collaborative effort between the Gender and Social Welfare Office and the Honorable Fabian’s Office underscores the importance of government and community working together to create a safety net for those in need. By registering for these programs, individuals can access critical services and resources that will improve their quality of life.
Let us come together in large numbers to support this initiative and make a positive impact on the lives of the most vulnerable members of our community. Your participation can help build a stronger and more inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
